Will a 3fe cam work in a 1F? (1 Viewer)

[Hayden70FJ40]

I currently need a new cam in my 1F due to bad pitting. I plan to put new lifters and cam in. When I was searching for a new cam I noticed cruiser corps is showing there cam they offer, working from 68-92 land cruisers. If this is correct I have a used 3fe engine apart and the cam is in good shape. I havent removed my cam yet to compare but just curious if anyone has done this or heard of it.

Once it has been run in, each cam lobe is "mated" to it's lifter. You always keep the lifter with it's lobe. Never switch them around.


THe 3F uses different lifters than the f/2f. The cam will physically fit in your F but the lifters won't.

The cam specs are slightly different too (the cam timing is... retarded a dew degrees IIRC).

Do a bit of research here on replacement cams and oil passage holes. I think you want to make it's drilled on the correct bearing journal.

ok thanks. Im most likely going to do a ManaFre RV cam.

Delta RV cam is popular. I think it's the same as manager, but you can buy it direct or through summit. Probably cheaper.

FJ40 1F Engine Cam Lobe Pitting

When I bought this truck I drove it around on the guys land and it drove well and the engine seemed to run well. The exhaust is cut off a foot from manifold so it was loud, so I couldn't hear the engine very well. It felt/ran good enough that I wasn't planning to do much to the engine, but...

How much vacuum are you pulling with your Delta 250S cam?

How much vacuum are you pulling with your Delta 250S cam? Has anybody measured before and after installing the cam? The reason I ask is that I just got my rebuild running and found manifold vacuum to be closer to 15 than 20, but it will increase to 20 if I advance the timing well beyond the 7...

F-F1.5-2F camshaft differences

So I purchased the Clegg rebuild kit for my 10/1974 and all went well at the machine shop until the were installing the cam. The oiling ports are different from what came out of the motor. Anyone know the difference? Did the 1.5F have a 2F cam?
